This text aims to cut through the complexities of educational research to give the novice reader a sound basis to define, develop, and conduct study, while providing insights for even the accomplished reader. It should of value to social researchers, but in particular to upper-level undergraduate and graduate students as well as researchers employed in private industry, management and government agencies.
